Impressions of Microsoft Tech Summit Frankfurt 2018

This week, the Microsoft Tech Summit roadshow took place in Frankfurt, Germany. On two days, from February 21-22, 2018, the cost-free roadshow informed about topics from Azure to Microsoft 365. We were happy to be part of the Tech Summit. See some impressions here.

The keynote was delivered by Giovanni Mezgec, General Manager, Microsoft Office 365 Marketing and Corey Sanders, Director of Compute, Microsoft Azure. Then, there followed a variety of IT Pro Breakouts and Developer Breakouts. Beside the breakout sessions, Tech Summit provided experts panels, workshops and booths to directly get in contact with the Microsoft teams and third party vendors and to ask questions.

We put together some impressions of that event with some of our snapshots in this Sway (switch to full screen mode in the top right corner and exit with ESC):

We enjoyed the event very much. It was great for networking and getting ideas and useful content about Microsoft technologies. As a point of criticism, I need to say that the location setup with the "clouds" (tents) was much too noisy for understanding well during the sessions. So, I hope, this will be solved better in future and there will be another room concept. Next to that, the cost free event delivered a lot of cool technologies and insights of the Microsoft cloud offerings. More than 2000 participants used the MS Tech Summit event to get the latest news and technologies. AFAIK, this was the largest Microsoft event this year in Germany.
